@404_3RROR @PlayApex Overwatch had problems that apex triumphed over. God forbid they make a legend that has some fun extra utility to them. Also she hasn't even come out yet, do you have to be all "bruh this legand already sucks just like the last one."

@Confusion_ow @anjamvrie See what I'm wondering now is if they've just now started testing out OW2s early acess and we have 2 months until OWL will they have enough time to fix all the bugs? Ik the overwatch team used to be relatively good when it came to shipping polished games but this seems-

@JuanDiehm @jobo_bo_bobobo @Neqtuen What in the flying **** makes you think anybody discussing **** on Twitter is going to be the solution LOL? You really think the OverWatch Dev team Combs Twitter to look through random posts that are nothing more than drama for "Solutions" to their problems? Or--

@_ImTheAnswer People don’t understand that toxicity comes with competitive anything. It’s annoying that mfs are too slow to realize this. But then you have the players who are like oh I’m not switching it’s just a game I wanna play who I want to play. And that’s the problem with overwatch

@EeveeA_ Ah! Speaking of streaming, how do you not get Overwatch to lag when streaming with a live 2D avatar?! 😭 I usually get 140+ FPS and today I had less than 30

@six6jiang As someone who hasn't played Genshin, how accessible is the game? My problem with live service games like these (Overwatch and handful of others) is that it seems if you are not there from the beginning then the barrier to entry is high. Is that the case?

@RobinQuesadilla I played overwatch for a while and they fall under the same category. Live service games have to have some communication. Apex Legends is also getting feedback from their players.

@TiffanySmith04 Mam, I can only speak to my leadership actions, & I sent them an email of concern that a leader had committed this issue 2xs already & my leadership took the reigns from me, & nothing was done despite my objections. I requested an overwatch to review the concerns based on that.

@SamitoFPS Overwatch has the problem of each character filling a role and a subrole in tf2 you have the sniper and their weapons change their role but they're still the same character, in overwatch each character is that weapon so one tricking is more common 2/3 sorry i misjudged length

@xBillTheGamer @Shpeshal_Nick That is because of deals. They don't have have cod but crash, spyro, Tony Hawk, overwatch, Diablo, starcraft and more Ips . Ps keeps cod for a short while but that likely changes after the next 2 games.

@marin_marius_eu @anonymousOW Overwatch is maybe the most balanced it's ever been, there's like 2 broken heroes right now (Cowboy and Baptiste) and 1 hero that could be tuned down (Echo). Hanzo is pretty fair and Mercy isn't a problem at all unless you feed which is a personal thing, not a balance issue.

@haveyouseen01 I think we will see games like Overwatch still be on PS4/5. I have A feeling that Spryo and Crash might also come to switch and maybe Playstation. The next big Blizzard games I think they will be PC and xbox only.

(@ITz_Dhillon) reported
@SamitoFPS I think the only way to implement a way to reduce the one trick problem is to have a ban and protect system just like league of legends and dota 2 have. Since Overwatch does not have a lot of heroes it will be only 1 ban and protect or each team.

Apex is getting the Overwatch problem where the game becomes less about gun skill and more reliant on wall hacks, character meta/counters, character abilities.

@SamitoFPS ya i dont disagree, overwatch is in a bad state its undeniable and ranked has been meaningless for years, mmr resets are an easy scapegoat to lean in to fixing some problems

The main problem with overwatch 2. Is going to further compound the issue of attrition above all else/is success. Which means their will never be a reason never to use only sigma and zarya. Lucio as healer. And mei/soldier 76. With 1 less tank and more open map design.

(@sleepy) reported
@SamitoFPS ya theres a ton of things blizz has to do but we nkow they likely wont; one tricking isn't the issue, the fact that theres only 6-8 characters on the whole roster playable in a 'meta' at once is more-so an issue. the charm of overwatch was to be able to swap chars at any point

@BurhanPlays Microtransaction addiction is no laughing matter. I was one of the victims. Took me years to get rid of em. Thanks to my wife and friends, those days are gone. My Dota 2 and Overwatch skins were purely cosmetics and I still spent a fortune. We need to address these issues more

I don't make relationship issues public but I feel like I'm honestly at my limit and don't know where else to turn. I'm incredibly concerned about @TootBrownstain wellbeing to the point I'm thinking that she might need an intervention... She's been playing ranked Overwatch.

The game obviously has problems, like occasional hackers, a stale meta and balancing issues. But overwatch has those, foundational problems, plus more, and then all of those problems are then injected with giga-steroids
